Looking for a hospital
Hello, I am new and desperately reaching out for help!! 3 years ago, I began seeing a pain management doctor who over time had me up to 15 mg Oxycodone every four hours and 20 mg Oxycontin twice a day. I saw my life slowly go from an active, happy mom to a depressed person who stayed in bed all day. My life revolved around my meds. A little over a year ago, I finally gathered up enough courage to go see a doctor in town who prescribed Suboxone. My plan was to start Suboxone with intent to wean off and get totally clean. I have mentioned to my doctor several times tat I desire to get off the Subs and she has absolutely no interest in assisting me. I am now looking for a place to detox (impatient) but my insurance won't cover a dime for any "free standing" facility meaning it has to be a hospital. And finding a hospital in my area that will detox someone off Subs is impossible. I believe my insurance will cover anywhere in the nation as long as it's a "hospital". Does anyone out there know of a hospital that is a good one that will give good care? I've heard nightmare stories about people having terrible experiences with uncaring staff etc. I just want to find a place that is empathetic while I'm in detox. Hope this all makes sense. Thank you to who reads this!
